A true German-style hefeweizen made with 45% malted wheat, unmalted wheat, Munich malt and 2-row barley. The yeast is a southern German style strain. The flavor profile includes clove and banana undertones. This beer is unfiltered and slightly phenolic. The hop additions are all traditional Hallertauer hops.

On tap at Ram, Tacoma. It pours an unclear, orange-golden body topped by a small, white head. Lots of cloves in the aroma, with decent leves of banana and bubble gum. Some generic fruityness and a little malty touch too. The flavor too has too much cloves, but the levels of malts, bubble gum and banana are nice. Medium body, perhaps a tad low on carbonation. Cloves and bubble gum finish, some fruityness too. Decent indeed, but not impressive. 130629

From notes. Draft at the schaumburg location. Decently sweet with a good deal of banana. Ok beer, but nothing to get excited over.

Taster at the RAM, Schaumburg. Properly cloudy. A nice ’nana and ester nose which matches up with the taste. The menu here refers to "Vanguard" hops, which I don’t know what they mean in a German beer, but they don’t drag this beer off-style. Nice fizzy mouthfeel to the end.

Sampled from the tap at the Mundelin beer fest. Pours a cloudy slightly pale gold with a white head that lasted throughout the beer. Aroma is slightly perfumey with a good amount of clove and backing sweet grains and banana. The flavor has a good amount of sweet grains up front with the clove and banana coming out in the finish.

Tap. Sweet orange/banana and wheat malt aroma. Cloudy amber color with small head. Sweet banana, clove, and wheat malt flavor. Light carbonation. On the sweet side - not bad.

draft at the Fishers, IN brewpub - Pours cloudy yellow with a yeasty, citrusy, spicy aroma. It tastes of sweet wheat and malt with citrus and banana notes and assertive spice that blends well. It’s light and refreshing, but flavorful. Nice hefe.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a nothing white head. Aroma is an extremly decent clove and bananna. Flavor is again lots of banana, clove and some creamy yeast. This is a pretty damn good hefe and i wish i had more than just one bottle.
